fter the purchase of the Empress Hotel in March, the gift of the Paramount Theatre is the second major downtown landmark to be acquired by the City of Chilliwack this year. The eventual closing of the iconic Yale Road movie house was inevitable, but in a press release issued Thursday the city announced that the Paramount’s owners, Landmark Cinemas of Canada, had donated the building and the property to the city. “This is a boon to the City of Chilliwack that we have been able to have this building donated to us,” Mayor Sharon Gaetz told the Times Thursday. The city has no EB IRST plans to operate First reported on the movie theatre chilliwacktimes.com but will hold the property until a use can be determined. A downtown task force chaired by Coun. Ken Huttema will recommend a strategy and actions in early 2011, Gaetz said. “All I can say is we are incredibly thrilled and thank Landmark for the contribution and for providing entertainment since 1987,” she said. Wednesday was the last showing at the Paramount and the closure
wo Chilliwack men will serve federal sentences for their roles in the 2008 stabbing death of 19-year-old Cody Gottschalk at Cultus Lake. But for Gottschalk’s family the pain will continue. In handing down his sentence in Chilliwack Supreme Court on Tuesday, Justice Terence Schultes called the attack by Adam Phillips and Justin Lennard on Gottschalk and his friends “completely pointless and unreasonable.” Schultes handed Phillips a sentence of three years and one month—on top of time already served—for wielding the knife that killed Gottschalk and injured two other men, one gravely, on May 17, 2008. Lennard was sentenced to two years and one month in jail for starting the fight that precipitated the stabbings. On Monday, both men pleaded guilty to manslaughter and aggravated assault. Phillips also entered a guilty plea to assault causing bodily harm.

1994 Washed away
The river referendum was washed away by a negative vote. Chilliwack River Valley residents defeated the referendum which would have seen a service area established and subsequently a committee to work toward diking, bank protection and storm drainage. About 670 people came out to vote and more than 460 people gave the regional district a clear, definite no. Debates about the referendum were often described as volatile.

Knifepoint robbery nets 5 years A
man who committed two knifepoint robberies last summer has been handed a five-year prison sentence. Robert Thomas Splitt, 44, pleaded guilty on the first day of his trial Monday to two counts of robbery. His sentencing hearing was held Tuesday afternoon in New Westminster Supreme Court. On Aug. 24, 2009, Splitt and Robert William Delayer robbed two people in Chilliwack and Maple Ridge. The first robbery took place at a TD Canada Trust at 6:45 p.m. The man was set

upon after withdrawing $100. Splitt and Delayer approached from behind and demanded all of the man’s money, telling the man that if he didn’t comply, they would “stick” him. Four hours later, a woman was robbed at a BMO ATM in Maple Ridge. She had just made a deposit when Splitt and Delayer “sandwiched” her and threatened her with a knife. She took $500 out of her account and gave it to them. - The Province
he Pacific Region Training Centre hopes to put a $25-million silencer on its controversial gun range within the next three years, according to the facility’s officer in charge. Chief Supt. Bill Dingwall, the officer in charge of PRTC, says the centre has found a site, commissioned concept drawings and will soon start public consultations for a proposed soundproof indoor gun range. The current range is anything but noiseless and has drawn complaints from both the public and the University of the Fraser Valley, which will soon move into a new campus next door to PRTC and which owns the land on which the range sits. “We’ve got approval in principal to go to an indoor range,” Dingwall told local media Wednesday. He said an indoor facility has long been a priority but was derailed in 2008 by the recession. Now, Dingwall said officials are completing business cases and other necessary paperwork that would allow PRTC to start construction. “We don’t want to be in our range until 2016, the university doesn’t want us in our range until 2016, the community doesn’t want us in that range until 2016, so we’re doing what we can to move that particular capital initiative forward,” he said. Dingwall said that an indoor range has been his No. 1 priority since coming to the PRTC four years ago. A new range, he said, is needed for both the community and the officers. “We believe we’re going to be well-positioned for many years to come with a fine facility that’s going to be indoors, and the noise to the community around us will be basically gone,” said Dingwall. “And, if it’s indoors it lets

us use it seven days a week if we want to, and there’s a lot of demand for ranges in the Lower Mainland.” He said the PRTC is considering a public-private partnership and may partner with both the city and CEPCO to get the range built. “I’m hoping that we’ll be shooting in that range within three years and hopefully sooner, if we can have all the ducks aligned and not go into another recession.” In the meantime, Dingwall pointed to plywood barriers to properly collect bullets and 8 a.m.-to-5 p.m. weekday shooting as steps the PRTC has taken to minimize its impact on neighbours. Later this month, it will also host a community consultation and open house to better inform residents about the centre’s function and plans for the future. The event takes place Nov. 13 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the PRTC gymnasium. Citizens will have a chance to ask questions of PRTC brass— about their ongoing activities and plans for the range—after opening remarks by local politicians at 10:45.

he corporate naming of rooms at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre has begun. At Monday’s meeting, city council approved five naming agreements under a policy approved two years ago. Hub International, Lock’s Pharmacy, Odlum Brown and Wagner Appliance will all now have their names on various rooms in the city-owned $22-million facility under agreements that will last from two to 13 years. Because of ongoing financial contributions to the centre, the Chilliwack Foundation was also granted a naming agreement for the boardroom for 10 years at no cost. But the building itself will one day be called something other than the Chilliwack Cultural Centre as the city is actively seeking corporate sponsorship for naming rights. “They are still looking for someone,” Mayor Sharon Gaetz said. “I believe [former mayor] Clint Hames has been shaking the trees on that one.” But while some people have criticized the idea of splashing a corporate name on the outside of the building, Gaetz defended the plan. “What I hear from most taxpayers is they want to pay less taxes,” she said. “I guess in a perfect world nothing would have any corporate branding, but this really helps offset the
cost to the taxpayer.” The biggest deal approved Monday was $5,000 per year for five years paid by Odlum Brown to sponsor two meeting rooms. Lock’s Pharmacy will pay $500 per year for 13 years to put its name on an early education music studio. Wagner Appliance will pay $500 for two years for the choral studio. And Hub International will pay $250 a year for two years for a music studio. As for the cost of naming rights for the whole centre, that figure is yet to be determined. A prominent figure on the B.C. sports scene, Glen Ringdal has been involved in naming deals for years, including GM Place. Ringdal has been vice-president of the Vancouver Canucks, president of the B.C. Lions, president of the Vancouver 86ers and was named Vancouver Sports Personality of the Year in 2001. Now he is with the Chief Development Group which owns and operates Prospera Centre, but he wouldn’t disclose the cost to the credit union for that sponsorship and said it wasn’t as simple as one figure. He did say that for a deal for a whole facility, it usually would be for a “fair amount” and usually for at least 10 years. “We’re certainly looking in five digits, not six,” he told the Times. So what does the City of Chilliwack have to watch out for when searching for such a deal? “It’s always important the best interests of the municipality and the real owners of the centre don’t get sublimated by a commercial name,” he said. He also said it would likely have to be a company that is community-based.

The district will now turn its sights to finding a replacement for secretary-treasurer Ray Velestuk who left Chilliwack for a position in the Abbotsford school district at the end of last month. To fill in the gaps from Nov. 1 to June 30 or until a new secretary-treasurer is found, director of human resources Maureen Carradice will assume the role of secretary-treasurer for board meetings.

hilliwack’s MLAs have weighed in on the departure of Premier Gordon Campbell and both say the decision is a step forward for the province. And immediately after Wednesday’s resignation, pundits lined up to predict who the party will choose to succeed the embattled Liberal Party leader. Inside the party, top names include Kevin Falcon, Mike de Jong, Rich Coleman and George Abbott. From outside the party, Surrey Mayor Diane Watts’s name has come up and there was even a “facetious” comment made in the House of Commons in Ottawa by MP John Baird regarding Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon MP Chuck Strahl as a contender. And while his name hasn’t appeared atop any lists, Chilliwack-Hope MLA Barry Penner has been pegged as a long shot. Vaughn Palmer put Penner on a list of “dark horses/contenders in their own mind” on his blog, but the long-time environment minister and new minister of aboriginal relations and reconciliation said he wasn’t planning to run. “It’s not something that I’ve been thinking about,” he told the Times Thursday. “It’s a huge and onerous job. I’ve been extremely busy for the last five years as minister of the environment and I can’t imagine being busier than that. But being premier means you are busier than that.”
He also said Campbell’s move wasn’t totally unexpected. “I think it was time for the premier to announce his plans to allow for a leadership convention and start a process of renewal,” he said. “This is the first step in a process of renewal for the party and that’s important because we know what happened when the NDP has been in office before.” Chilliwack MLA John Les said Wednesday he was shocked by Campbell’s announcement. “I don’t think anybody saw this coming, certainly not this soon,” said Les, adding he thinks the decision was made for the good of the province. “He obviously came to the conclusion that his carrying on was becoming a distraction to the real public debate that should be going on in British Columbia,” he added. “As is typical of Gordon Campbell, he’s taken himself out of the equation for the betterment of the province. That’s the Gordon Campbell that I’ve known for years. He’ll do what’s right.” Both Penner and Les are working on new files after the Oct. 25 cabinet shuffle. Les, long out of cabinet because of RCMP and ALC investigations into land deals while he was mayor that eventually cleared him, will once again be in the media spotlight as parliamentary secretary for HST information to the finance minister. As for Penner, he’s getting to know a new portfolio after five-and-a-half years as environment minister. Sto:lo leaders in the Fraser Valley are yet to feel the impact of having a local MLA as minister of aboriginal relations and reconciliation. - with a file from the Vancouver Sun

he Chilliwack school district has found its new second in command. On Tuesday, it announced the appointment of Ruth Wiebe to the post of assistant superintendent effective Nov. 1. Wiebe, who has been the district’s director of instruction since 2006, will take over from Michael Audet who retires at the end of December. Before coming to Chilliwack five years ago, Wiebe was a teacher and administrator in the Abbotsford school district from 1975 to 2006. “My dad was a school principal, so I grew up in schools,” she said in an interview with the Times. During her time with the Abbotsford district, she was a classroom teacher, a teacherlibrarian, a learning assistance teacher, a curriculum helping teacher, a district vice-principal for curriculum and elementary vice-principal and principal. Wiebe has also been a sessional instructor and faculty
associate in the faculty of education at Simon Fraser University. What draws her to school district-level work, however, is a passion for systems planning. “I really like to focus on the big picture and then look at how you build the pathway to get that big picture,” she said. “She is a master at building a plan and seeing it out for five years,” said superintendent Corinne McCabe of her new right-hand woman. One area Wiebe is particularly interested in is supporting students who struggle with literacy and numeracy. Her Ph.D. at Simon Fraser University focused on dyslexia and students who struggle with reading, and she also has a grown child with autism, a subject she studied during her master’s degree (also at SFU). Much of her work has been focused on finding ways to develop students’ strengths, so they can be participants in the community. “My strength is building community based upon the strengths that we have in our community,” she said. “At the same time, we can’t just focus

All three had been living on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, and all were found naked and strangled. Thirty-year-old Olajide, a mother of one, was a crack cocaine user and had mostly stopped sex work before she disappeared. She was last seen Aug. 10, 1995, near the Waldorf Hotel. Her body was found two days later near a logging road north of Lougheed Highway outside Agassiz. Pipe, 24, used to donate money and clothing to the needy before she turned to drugs and the sex trade.

Volunteers needed for Operation Red Nose
O
peration Red Nose is mustering for another campaign, and volunteer drivers are once again needed to help Rudolf get tipsy folks and their vehicles home safely this holiday season. Now in its seventh year in Chilliwack, Operation Red Nose is a free and confidential designated driver service designed to combat drinking and driving and promote road safety. Teams of three road volunteers pick up clients who don’t feel fit to drive and shuttle them to their destination in their own vehicle—anywhere from Harrison Hot Springs to Richmond. Last year, Operation Red Nose provided local residents with 492 safe rides, and organizers hope to sign up at least 150 volunteers this year to keep up with growing demand. The campaign will operate Nov. 26 and 27, Dec. 3, 4, 10, 11, 17 and 18, and New Year’s Eve, and volunteers are needed to drive client vehicles, escort vehicles, navigate, dispatch, and operate telephones. Registration is now underway and volunteer applications are available at the Chilliwack RCMP detachment at 45924 Airport Road or
by calling 604-393-3023. Also returning in 2010 is the “Socially Responsible Establishment” program within which local pubs, bars, nightclubs and restaurants that sponsor Operation Red Nose promote the service and encourage their patrons to make use of it. In 2009, the Socially Responsible Establishment award was presented to Ryan MacDonald, general manager of Industry Nightclub. Chilliwack Restorative Justice & Youth Advocacy Association hosts Operation Red Nose every year. Provincial sponsors are ICBC and CTV. Local committed sponsors to date include the Upper Fraser Valley RCMP, Kal-Tire Chilliwack retread plant, STAR-FM, Shaw Cable, The Hawk, the Chilliwack Times , the Chilliwack Progress,, Homelife Glenayre Realty, Don Murphy’s Suzuki, HUB International Barton’s Insurance, Langley Concrete, Vedder Mountain Veterinary Clinic, Minuteman Press and The Falls Resort. Operation Red Nose, originally launched in Quebec City in 1984, now has more than 90 host organizations across Canada and 11 in British Columbia. ◗ For more information on becoming a volunteer or a sponsor, please call 604-393-3023.

High Anxiety and Dangerous Driving
Wikipedia defines anxiety as “a psychological and physiological state … typically associated with [feelings of] uneasiness, apprehension, fear, or worry. Anxiety… often occur[s] without an identifiable triggering stimulus… [which distinguishes it] from fear, which occurs in the presence of an observed threat.”
THE ROAD RULES
Cedric Hughes
Anxiety levels vary from mild all the way to fullblown panic attacks and obsessions. The ScienceDaily website reports that nearly 5 percent of the US population suffers from persistent depression or anxiety while the Anxiety Disorders Association of Canada calls it the “secret disease” effecting 12 percent of Canadians “with many more suffering in silence.”
People who have suffered physical or traumatic injuries in car crashes not uncommonly develop ‘anxiety’ about driving. Driving phobia is an extreme level of anxiety about driving. These driving-related anxieties have been studied “relatively frequently” according to the journal Accident Analysis and Prevention. What hasn’t been studied as extensively, however, is the effect of general anxiety on driver behaviour. The November issue of the ScienceDaily journal contains US research connecting people with high-level general anxiety with more incidents of dangerous driving. The study of 1,120 people with high level general anxiety aged 17 to 55 with driving experience ranging from six months to 35 years, found they appeared to cause significantly more crashes, drove intoxicated more frequently, and demonstrated higher incidences of reckless road manoeuvres. Study co-author Michael Miesner of the Department of Psychology, East Tennessee State University, said “What we consider to be a relatively minor personality trait, whether or not you have high anxiety, can
significantly determine how safe a driver you are.” And, said lead author Chris Dula “[We] found … a small but consistent effect in which apprehension translated to dangerous driving.”
An earlier Australian study involving 75 drivers aged 17 to 46 also found a link between anxiety and degraded driving skills. Experts at the Queensland Barrister & Solicitor University of Technology (QUT) found that anxiety was one of the main reasons why drivers “find it increasingly difficult to focus their attention on where they are going. This inattention promotes a significant increase in the number of car accidents, the scientists [said].” Ides Wong, an expert with the QUT Center for Accident Research & Road Safety, offered the following explanation for the connection between anxiety and dangerous driving: “Being anxious makes drivers unable to fully focus their attention on the road, particularly in urban areas, where there are plenty of distractions and when time pressured.” The Australian study also found that as driving tasks became increasingly difficult, highly anxious drivers had significantly longer response times. Researchers concluded this indicated that highly anxious drivers maintained accuracy at the expense of response time. Authors of the US study suggested that incorporating warnings about anxiety into driver training programs, and encouraging people prone to anxiety to seek professional help, would be a good start to addressing the problem for road-users of all ages. “Anxiety is something that’s very easy, relatively speaking, to address,” said Professor Miesner. “There’s no reason to not deal with it, and risk driving unsafely.” Cedric Hughes L.L.B.

Police asking for help solving 1995 murders that left bodies dumped in the Fraser Valley
middle of a side road in the woods, also north of Lougheed Highway near Agassiz. Younker’s body was found partially decomposed down an embankment on a logging road near Mission on Oct. 21, 1995. The 35-year-old had worked the streets and engaged in petty theft to support a drug habit. She had worked between Main Street and Victoria Drive. Several pieces of her ID were later found in a dumpster outside a hotel. She was last seen Sept. 11, 1995, outside a government unemployment office on East Hastings. The investigation, now known as Project E-Valley, combines the resources of both the Vancouver Police Department and the RCMP. One suspect, a roofer from Mission, was identified in the killings in 1995, but was later cleared because of DNA evidence. Investigators believe the killer must have had an intimate knowledge of the remote areas where the bodies were found, possibly because he worked or lived there, or went there to hunt, camp or fish. They also believe he must have needed a four-wheel-drive vehicle to navigate the area, and in dumping the bodies, would have scratched the vehicle’s undercarriage. Red automotive paint chips and oil have been found at those sites, police said, while yellow flecks were recovered from the bodies. The tiny, rubber flecks are about the size of a pinhead that may have come from rain gear.

◗ Opinion
Gordo, we knew him well I
remember the first time I photographed Gordon Campbell. It was 1997, and I was working at a newspaper in Kamloops. The Liberal Party was hosting a fundraiser and had rented a ballroom at a downtown community centre to better ply loyal members. Campbell was effusive, smiling, and charming everyone there with wit and humour, a few policy murmurs and some back slapping. He still drank then, and seemed to be enjoying his bottle of beer as he made the rounds. He had two handlers with him, and whenever I tried to take a picture while he had the bottle raised to his lips, one of them would spot me and give him a subtle nudge to not drink, and he would put the bottle behind his back. I was just a news photographer then, no writing, no tweeting, no social networking, no cellphone. I felt cutting edge to have a pager. I couldn’t immediately e-mail a photo or file a story from my iPhone to the news desk. Information took longer to disseminate, opinion wasn’t formed within minutes, newsmakers had more time to sway the public between rebuttals in print or on the evening news. What I’m getting at is this: long before the news became as instantaneous as it is today, Campbell was a master of controlling his
RAFE ARNOTT
Be Our Guest image in the media and how it played out to the electorate. I can’t help but wonder, despite his eloquent protestations at Thursday morning’s Vancouver press conference to the contrary, if that is what finally made him call it quits. His ability to control how the media presented him was no longer making a difference. It didn’t seem to matter what he said on television, or on the radio, or in the newspaper. No one was buying it anymore. After all, this is the man who was able to spin a police mug shot taken after his arrest in Hawaii on drunk-driving charges into contrition, atonement and re-election. Words like “Teflon” came up in news stories whenever there was a reference to a scandal that plagued Campbell; nothing ever stuck to the man. Nothing it seems, but the harmonized sales tax. Finally, reporters, pundits and political opponents had some mud to sling that would stick to
the premier. And stick it did. No matter what he tried to do, Campbell could not shake the HST, much like NDP Premier Glen Clark, whose leadership was sunk in large part by the $1 billion fast ferry debacle. The HST dogged Campbell, and dragged him down, down, down. It took him down to the new low of a nine per cent personal approval rating with British Columbians. Being able to rise from depths as deep proved too much, even for an indefatigable politician like Campbell. Despite all the talk, the stuttering financial experts, the infrastructure-boosted photo ops, the government spin and, finally, the bullying, the tax break, the Cabinet shuffle and the promise of a binding referendum on the unpopular tax, Campbell seemed to have realized that no matter what he said, nobody was listening anymore. So, despite telling assembled media Thursday morning that his decision to resign was not based on unpopularity, but on being able to spend more time with family, I’m having difficulty swallowing his long-winded explanation. The premier doth protest too much, methinks. ◗ Rafe Arnott is a reporter with the Abbotsford Times.
We don’t agree with much former prime minister Brian Mulroney says but we do agree with his recent comment that we need to have “a serious, adult discussion” about health care in Canada. Part of this discussion, no doubt, will include the question of user fees.The problem with the B.C. Liberal government’s decision to order health authorities to start collecting a “convalescent care” fee of $29.40 per day is that there was no conversation at all. Even some MLAs weren’t aware this fee had been implemented by stealth. In Nanaimo, NDP MLA Leonard Krog and Liberal MLA Ron Cantelon both say they were unaware of the new fee’s implementation, which can add up to nearly $900 per month. Cantelon—a B.C. Liberal—agrees with his NDP counterpart that the fee should not be charged. This new “convalescent fee” is vile on three counts. First, it hits seniors the hardest. Second, the sneaky way in which it was introduced is just plain irritating. Finally, it violates one of the core principles of universal health care—that no Canadian should have to pay for basic medical care. This is how the Liberals pay for all the tax cuts they like to brag about: The money is clawed back through user fees and premiums. The implementation of this fee underscores one of the problems when local boards—like hospital boards—are regionalized. You can bet that if we had locally elected hospital board members, this new fee would not have been implemented without a fight. A question for our Liberal MLAs and the provincial minister of health: Who told you that you could do this?

No need to change Rosedale’s name Editor: In the “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” category, I am wondering why School District 33 officials are going through the process of searching for a name for the new combined middle/elementary school in Rosedale, when the choice seems obvious to me. There has been a Rosedale school in Rosedale for a century, if not more; first an elementary school and then later, in the 1960s, also a junior high (now known as a traditional middle school). Now a beautiful new school is rising on the site of Rosedale middle, to house all Rosedale students from kindergarten through grade nine. The name Rosedale has been so strongly associated with schools and education in this tight-knit community for so many generations that there seems to be no compelling need to change the name of the school now. Rosedale community school, Rosedale elementarymiddle school, Rosedale traditional community school: call it what you must, as long as you keep Rosedale in the name. If you feel the same as me, make sure you let the powers-that-be know by Nov. 12 by contacting: Principal Jeff Hanson at jeff_hanson@sd33. bc.ca. For more information, visit www.sd33.bc.ca or rosedale.schools.xspression.com. Anne Russell Rosedale
Do some just matter more? Editor: When we say that everyone matters do we really mean everyone? Sure, when we say that we’re thinking of kids, older people, and our loved ones. Yet there are more people in the world than just them. We don’t think twice about the people we see begging for food and money on the streets. Do you even think they matter? Do you think to give them the sandwich you’re going to throw away anyways or the $2.25 in your pocket? They are human too. Do you think about that? Think back to when you were a little boy or girl.

I grow up I would like to be a prostitute or a drug addict? I don’t think so, and neither did they. So next time you walk by, don’t judge or ignore them. All they want is at least a hello. Some things we can do to make the homeless happy and/or healthy are give them a snack or show them to the nearest soup kitchen. I think that the government needs to make more kitchens and shelters for these men and woman on the streets. Just think the women are getting beaten and raped because no one will notice them going missing so they are an easy target. So don’t just ignore them, get involved. After all everyone matters right?

Why punish young drivers? Editor: I go to school on a motorcycle every day. The bike I have is worth $700, yet for one year of insurance I pay $1,500. My boss, who owns a brand new diesel truck worth $60,000, pays $1,200 per year. Based on this alone, he pays less for a vehicle that is worth 50 times more than the insurance, and I pay double the price of my motorbike. I feel this is unfair. When determining the cost of insurance I feel mileage should be taken into account. My motorcycle gets 55 mpg, which is a lot better then a big diesel truck that gets about 25 mpg. I know age plays a major role in price, but if we look at the stats from Stats Canada: from 1979 to 2004, the average number deaths annually in Canada have decreased
from 25 to 10 (per 100,000). Furthermore, from 2000 to 2004 the average deaths of people age 15 to 24 is 16, and for people 65 and older, the average deaths are 13.2. Not much of a difference, yet young adults pay a lot more on insurance. As a solution I think everybody should start off at a cost that reflects the fuel mileage, price of vehicle, and also fluctuates based on the variations of driving records as to not punish the good drivers for the mistakes of others. Kyle Elliot Chilliwack
Just fighting a losing battle Editor: Without elaborating to a huge degree on the controversial issues surrounding the subject of marijauna like alcohol, it is never going to go away. Other than the lucrative outcome for growers there is the factor of supply and demand. Those who smoke it like it and it has only become obvious in our society that people don’t care if it is illegal and the growers are making a lot of money, so they are willing to take the criminal risk of getting caught. With our ailing economy and the horrendous police and court costs attached to taking down grow ops, my question is clear: wouldn’t it be way more profitable to legalize marijauna as a controlled substance within the parameters of government control that could contract growers to produce the substance and hire people to maintain the grow-ops, thereby creating jobs? The state of California voted against legalizing marijauna.
Would this be a solution or would it create more problems? I am not sure, but my sense is that the battle to continue enforcing pot as an illegal substance is one of a cat chasing a mouse. I am sure if police across this country were anonymously questioned as to what degree legalizing marijuana would solve certain levels of crime associated with it, the general public would be shocked to learn that cops don’t always agree with the laws they have to enforce. When something has been illegal as long as pot has and with the major crimes associated with it, not to mention the petty crimes, it is doubtful we will ever see the day it becomes legal. This won’t change, on the other hand, the budding population that continues to rebel against the laws of the land. Like alcohol, people will continue to seek ways to combat daily stress.

Need to stop conveyor belt Editor: Re:Vedder Mountain gravel conveyor proposal. Many people may not be writing to express their concerns over this proposal because the situation is “not in their backyard.” They may still think it is a deplorable plan and the course of actions taken are questionable at best. Well, this situation is not directly in my backyard either, but I am supporting all those who will be negatively impacted if this goes through. A day will come when I will need support to fight the relentless powers that be and what right will I have to ask for support when I have not done so for others in the past? I use Vedder Mountain Road most days of the week, and I am very upset to already see the increase in gravelhauling trucks at this stage. Just consider how many more trucks will be in use if this proposal goes through. How many will use and thereby destroy the rural atmosphere of the main street in Yarrow? How much increased deterioration in the condition of our roads? How many possible
accidents will compromise the safety of our citizens? How many countless windshields of our vehicles will have to be repaired due to thrown rocks? There has been slide after slide, year after year, on Vedder Mountain Road. It has shown itself as a weak, unsteady and geotechnically unsafe area. How could anyone in their right mind put this plan into action? They say faith can move mountains. In this case I say it’s cash—and it will move that mountain. Catherine Maycock Chilliwack

Couldn’t stop the fireworks Editor: I wonder how many calls were made to the RCMP complaining about the setting off or exploding of consumer fireworks last night, at the same time parents were leading their chilidren around to “trick or treat.” The truth is that the RCMP could not enforce Fireworks Regulation Bylaw 2006, No. 3246 in the area of Chilliwack where I live. Fireworks were exploding continually from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. I personally saw two groups of young teens setting off firecrackers. That was the least of the fireworks compared to the loud blasts and zooming flame showers that were being continually ignited. I strongly suggest that our authorities educate the public to understand that it is a very serious offence to explode any fireworks without a permit. They should be made fully aware that the law says: “18. Every person who violates or breaches any of the provisions of this bylaw is guilty of an offence and each day that the violation is caused or allowed to continue constitutes a separate offence. 19. Every person who violates or breaches any of the provisions of this bylaw is liable on summary conviction to a fine or imprisonment, or a fine and imprisonment. No fine imposed under this bylaw may exceed $10,000.00, and in no circumstances shall the fine imposed be below $500.00.” Donald Ross Chilliwack

How I got to be so out of shape BY VERN TOMPKE Vineyard Community Church
T
his week I decided to start jogging again. I am not sure if it is the fact I am turning 50 this week or the new “body creases” that threaten to appear from nowhere. In my mind I am a lean mean fighting machine. As I think of myself, the image that comes to mind is the guy running with long hair flowing in the wind—the guy who ran the 10-kilometre Vancouver Sun Run in 43:33 (yes those are minutes—not hours). It’s true—it’s on the Internet so it must be!
I can’t remember which decade that was—maybe it was the ’80s— maybe it was the ’90s. Did I have a mullet? Who knows? All I know is that I was truly buff. My return to running reminds me of some basic truths in life. For one, reality is not necessarily what I believe to be true. For example, in my discussions about faith with people, I have heard the phrase that “truth depends on what you believe.” If I believe something, then it must be true for me. I tried that with my running. I told myself that I was still that guy from the 1980s. I started out and believed with all my being that
I could run those 10 kilometres again—suddenly my truth turned out to be not so true after all. Truth turned out to be how things really are, not what I really, really hoped they would be. However, maybe if I had a lion chasing me . . . Another thing my return to running has me thinking is that getting back in shape is similar to how change and growth happens in our lives. I spend a lot of time with people who like to learn about spiritual topics. In fact, one of my “jobs” over the years has been to teach these to people. What I have found, however, is that while for some learning leads to growth, for

Not to point fingers, I am coming to grips with the fact that if I lived a quarter of the things I already “know” I would be truly dangerous.

others it doesn’t. Why is that? The reality is that some seek to put into practice what they learn and the result is growth and change. Others confuse learning things with actually changing and growing. Learning becomes a sort of an end in itself. I have come to believe that many of us are not growing because we are underfed. The real problem is that we are under-exercised. Without the faith, risk and challenges that come from seeking to put our learning into practice, this year’s new information won’t change us any more than last year’s information did.

t’s true. Here in Canada, we are not allowed to sell L-Carnitine. We think it’s a bit crazy that a natural health product you may have been taking for years suddenly isn’t available anymore, or even worse, you can only get it if you order it from another country - but that’s just the way it is. We don’t always understand it, but those are the rules.
L-Carnitine is a perfect example... although millions of people take it everyday, L-carnitine is a not available for sale in Canada, for a myriad of mostly political reasons.
tal muscles, and it also helps to keep your blood levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in check.
L-Carnitine is also very helpful for people suffering from angina pectoris, congestive heart failure, and elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels. In several large clinical trials, this nutrient has shown to have favourable effects helping patients recover more quickly from heart attacks. In other studies, L-carnitine has shown dramatic improvement in cardiac output - the heart’s ability to pump blood, improved peripheral circulation and helping with blood pressure concerns.
What does it do? L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring amino acid which plays a vital role in fat metabolism. It functions as a transporter of fatty acids into the mitochondria - the metabolic furnace of our cells. This is a major source of energy for the muscles, including the heart. And L-carnitine increases the use of fat as an energy source. This is ideal if you trying to lose weight.
Here’s a great idea! PreCar from AOR, is known as an L-carnitine precursor. That means that PreCar helps your body safely and naturally increase production of L-carnitine. In a nutshell, you get all of the health benefits of L-carnitine without ever having to buy it. Just get PreCar instead! It’s safe and effective.
As a result, L-Carnitine plays an important role in preventing fatty buildup, especially in the heart, liver, and skele-

pension. They also want the tax on death benefits (the so-called widows’ tax) revoked and an end to pension clawbacks after age 65, as well as full recognition of the effects of posttraumatic stress disorder. The bottom line for veterans like Latulippe is that VAC is out of touch with soldiers and treats veterans with an “insurance company mentality.” He cites the example of his nephew who was injured during his second tour in Afghanistan. “It was two, three years before they finally got the last piece of shrapnel out of his body,” he said. “He was near death, and he’s still fighting some of the issues with Veterans Affairs Canada.”

and this Saturday they are gathering across the country for a Veterans National Day of Protest. It’s an unusual move from a group used to toeing the line. “We don’t do this kind of stuff,” said Latulippe, “but enough is enough. We have to stand up and be counted. We don’t have a union to protect us, so we’re pretty well at the mercy of whatever they feel like making happen.” In Chilliwack, veterans will assemble at Cottonwood Mall and march to the office of minister Chuck Strahl to present him with a list of six demands including an end to lump-sum settlements for soldiers injured in the line of duty and the restoration of a lifetime monthly disability

BY CORNELIA NAYLOR cnaylor@chilliwacktimes.com f you know what’s good for you, you’re going to keep your mouth shut and do your job.” That’s the way it was in the Canadian Armed Forces when local retired RCAF captain Claude Latulippe was sent on a peacekeeping mission to Egypt just one month after his youngest son was born in 1977. He went, and when he returned from his posting a half-year later, he was a stranger to his son. He’s not complaining. To him, unquestioning obedience is a soldier’s duty. “We march and do as we’re told,” he said. “We work as a team, and that’s the way it has to be in the type of job that we did.” For those who sign on the bottom line, that obedience is expected even when it could end in injury or death. But what happens when the government body charged with taking care of retired and injured soldiers seems more interested in saving money by stalling benefit claims and clawing back pensions? That is the complaint Latulippe and many other Canadian veterans have against Veterans Affair Canada (VAC),

News GOTTSCHALK, from page 1 Following the sentencing, Lennard’s lawyer Matthew Nathanson told the Times: “I am hopeful and my client is hopeful that the way this matter was disposed of will help the victims and the families of the victims to find some closure and assist them in healing from this tragic incident.” But, Ramona Gottschalk said the family’s grief has not been eased by the case’s end. “This has been a devastating blow to me and my family,” she said following the sentencing. “Justice has not been served, nor is society being protected. These guys will be walking in months, while I’ll never see my son again.” Gottschalk was also unhappy that the original charge—second degree murder—was reduced to a lesser manslaughter charge. “We were shocked to hear, first of all, that it was going to go from jury and judge to just a judge alone,” Gottschalk said. “Then when the Crown told us that they are accepting a plea for manslaughter, I just couldn’t believe it. “I was hoping it was going to be something stiffer. The justice system is really pathetic.” On Monday, the court heard that Lennard confrontedCodyGottschalkaftertheRichmond teen told a park ranger that he wanted to be an RCMP officer. Unprovoked, Lennard threw the first punches in the fight that culminated with Phillips stabbing Gottschalk, Michael Paget, and park ranger Ryan Litchfield. Gottschalk was stabbed five times. He died in an ambulance en route to hospital. Paget nearly died after being stabbed four times, including twice in the kidneys. Litchfield, who the justice said acted “rather heroically,” was stabbed after pushing Phillips off of Paget. In delivering his sentence, Schultes said the actions of Lennard and Phillips was “fairly characterized as thuggish behaviour.” Before being sentenced, Phillips told the court that he felt ashamed, guilty and

Pathetic justice remorseful for his crimes. “I know an apology does not mean much,” he said in a monotone voice, “but I am very sorry.” Lennard’s lawyer, Matthew Nathanson, read a statement by his client. “I am ashamed,” Lennard wrote. “I wish I could go back in time and change the past so everyone would not be hurt by what I did, but I know I cannot go back in time. “Everyday I think about all the pain and hurt Cody’s mom will feel.” Gottschalk’s family did not wish to comment immediately following the sentencing. A day prior, Cody Gottschalk’s mother, Ramona, told the court: “My life and my desire to ‘be’ is gone. Desires, hopes and dreams now cease to exist. One day blurs into the next with no meaning or purpose.” Schultes handed Lennard and Phillips total sentences of seven and eight years in jail, respectively. Because the men’s crimes were committed in 2008, before new legislation was brought in, they were awarded double-time credit for time served. Nathanson, and Crown counsel had agreed that around two years of additional time was an adequate sentence for Lennard. But Nathanson felt his client’s sentence should be a day short of two years, which would have allowed Lennard to serve his time in a provincial facility away from more hardened criminals. Going to a federal institution, Nathanson argued, “would be disastrous both for my client and the community at large.” He said life in a federal prison would make it more difficult for Lennard to become a productive member of society when his sentence is over. The Crown, however, argued that a sentence of two years and one month was appropriate, even if it meant Lennard would have to go to a federal lock-up facility. - with files from Nelson Bennett, Richmond News

Minor Football Hard-fought game sees Blue Atom Giants all tied up against Mission The Chilliwack Blue Atom Giants fought the Mission 9ers to a tie on Saturday. The usual stand-outs for Chilliwack Blue were Justin Crooks, Andrew Locke, Colton Holt, Grayson Hardie and Jaylen Edwards. Edwards had 65 yards rushing, a fumble recovery for a turnover, and two tackles on defence. Locke had 35 yards rushing and four tackles while Holt rushed for 30 yards, made two tackles and recovered a fumble. Crooks had six solo tackles, one assist, and forced and recovered two fumbles. Hardie had two solo tackles. The crew all completed their offensive blocking assignments very well. The Giants played a great defensive game and came together and played well. But the tie means the Blue Giants will miss the playoffs. Peewee Blue secure playoff spot by pounding Mission 9ers The Peewee Blue Giants defeated the Mission 9ers 45-6 last Saturday. The Giants (6-3) secured third

place and an away playoff game with the win. However, running back Wyatt Uzick suffered a broken hand in the game and will be out the rest of the season. “It’s a huge loss for our team,” said head coach Lawrence Smith, “but not just in terms of his talent. He is a true leader in the huddle.” In the first half, Uzick had five carries for 143 yards and three touchdowns. Gabe Mannes had three carries for 90 yards and another three touchdowns. “Injuries are part of football...we are a team and we will continue to execute as a team,” said Smith. Ethan Mastin had 34 yards rushing and recovered an onside kick while Riley Eagan, Aaron Guliker, Reese Smith, Jaren Lengert, and Owen Eyres also carried the ball for the Giants. Jake Troyan led the way for the Giants’ defence with five tackles and a sack. Gibson Hardie, Michael Lengert, Reese Smith, Spencer Breslin, Jaren Lengert, Evan McCracken, Ethan Mastin and Adam Phillips also had sacks. The Giants defence did not allow a first down until the last drive of the game. Tyler Kermode, Austin Kardux and Eagan also played great defensive games from the halfback and corner positions. The Giants conclude their regular season in Langley this Saturday against the Bears.

Bruins melt down Ice T
he Chilliwack Bruins got goals from veterans, a defencemen, two rookies and a grinder as they crushed the Kootenay Ice 6-2 Tuesday. The win capped a successful fourgame swing through Alberta and eastern B.C. for the Bruins, who lost just once on the road. Six different players scored for Chilliwack, who returns home to host the Everett Silvertips Friday night. Steven Hodges, playing for the first time on the road trip, opened the scoring late in the first period. Hodges picked up a puck on the left wing and wired a wrist shot past Kootenay Ice goalie Nathan Lieuwen for his second of the year. Brandon Magee added to Chilliwack’s lead early in the second period when he picked up the puck off a faceoff and wristed it past Lieuwen from the slot for his second goal of the season. Roman Horak scored on a power play goalmouth scramble three minutes later. And just 34 seconds after Horak’s goal, Blair Wentworth outhustled one Ice defender and banked the puck off another for what should have been
his first goal of the season. A third member of the line, Brendan Persley, was credited with the goal, but the Bruins will likely put in a request to give Wentworth his due. The Bruins power play continued its deadly efficiency when, up two men late in the period, Brandon Manning cruised to the top of the slot and blasted the puck past a beleaguered Lieuwen. After starting the season relying on the deadly line of Horak, Howse and Robin Soudek, the Bruins’ secondary scoring has picked up the slack in recent games. Howse, in fact, was held without a goal in Alberta. But the Kootenays proved friendlier. Three minutes into the third, he picked up a bouncing puck behind the Ice defencemen, faked Lieuwen with a leg kick, and backhanded his 15th goal of the season into the cage. The goal chased Lieuwen from the net. Kootenay, down 6-0 by that point, managed to score a pair of goals in the back half of the period to salvage some dignity from a night in which they actually outshot Chilliwack 34-22. - Staff

High school soccer clubs in playoff battles
all year, Sardis finished the regular season 5-2. To finish off the season, Heinze— who coaches many of the boys outside of school—is planning a trip to a tournament in California in March.

T
wo Chilliwack high school boys soccer teams were in the thick of Fraser Valley Championship action in Abbotsford this week. Sardis secondary went down 1-0 to Abbotsford Collegiate in their third game of the AAA championship, ending their playoff run, while G.W. Graham secondary were in a do-or-die situation in the AA championship yesterday after dropping a 3-2 game against Abbotsford Traditional on Tuesday. Sardis Sardis staved off elimination last Thursday with a 2-0 win over Panorama Ridge. After a breakaway save by keeper Jamie Freeman in an even first half, Logan Mckeown opened scoring around the 55-minute mark, skinning three Panorama players and ripping a left-footed shot into the top right corner from 30 yards out. Sardis’s Jordan Vandrimmelen soon followed suit, turning with a pass from midfielder Michael Covey and driving it into the top left corner from about 45 yards out. During their final game on Tu e s d a y a g a i n s t Ab b o t s f o rd Collegiate, Sardis found themselves down a goal after only about five

Keeper Jamie Freeman again shut down an early breakaway, but an open Abbotsford player put the subsequent corner kick in the back
of the net. Despite controlling most of the play and getting lots of shots on net, Sardis was unable to equalize. “I’m proud of the boys,” said
coach Justin Heinze. “They played their hearts out all through the playoffs but were unfortunate to not make the end goal.” Despite being plagued by injuries
G.W. Graham The G.W. Graham Grizzlies have to win their last two games in the Fraser Valleys to secure a berth in the AA provincial championships. They won their second straight game of the Valley Championships last Thursday in a shootout against Sands secondary from Delta. Keeper Carson Davies made a number of key saves against a skilled, attack-minded team to keep the score 0-0 at the end of regulation time. He also came up big with a save during the penalty shootout. The final score was 6-5 in penalty kicks with the winning penalty scored by Gerrid Crowe. The Grizzlies fared less well this Tuesday against Abbotsford Traditional. Graham looked to dominate after scoring the first two goals. The first, by Gerrid Crow, was struck from long range while the second, by Michael Gregory, was slotted home from inside the 18 after being worked down the left wing by Geoffrey Slovick.

On Cooking chemical leaveners. Baking soda is sodium bicarbonate and it requires liquid and an acid to make a gaseous reaction. It is usually added to recipes that have a naturally occurring acid in the ingredients. This acid can be found in items such as buttermilk, yogurt, sour cream, honey, molasses, and fruits. The amount of baking soda used is determined and balanced by the amount of these acids occurring in the recipe’s ingredients. Baking powder, on the other hand is a complete leavener, as it only requires liquid for it to react in the same manner. The reason for this is that it contains a mixture of baking soda

hilliwack Community Services’ first ever Radioathon fundraiser with 89.5 The Hawk raised over $22,000 supporting Literacy programs. The event was held on Oct. 28 from 6 to 11 a.m. live in the lobby at The Coast Chilliwack Hotel. Local businesses and individuals dropped by throughout the morning and showed support for these important literacy programs. “Family Literacy programs at Chilliwack Community Services provide opportuni-
ties for families to complete their high school education in a highly supportive, family-friendly environment” said Darby Wilkinson, Early Years director at CCS. “There is little to no sustainable funding to support these programs, which is why CCS relies on community support to ensure these programs can be offered yearly.” ◗ People can still pledge by calling 604-792-4267 or by visiting www.comserv.bc.ca and clicking on the donate now button.
and the balanced amount of acid, along with starch to help prevent lumping. This is why you will see some recipes that call for baking powder and others with baking powder and/or baking soda. A good comparison of this would be a pancake recipe compared to a buttermilk pancake recipe. Most quick bread recipes consist of mixing dry and wet ingredients in two separate bowls first before combining them. Not only are quick breads fast, they are also very tender. This is due to the limited production of gluten in the mixing process. When flour and liquid are mixed together, gluten is formed. Gluten is most recognizable as the elastic feeling in yeast bread dough that has been kneaded. The longer that flour and liquid are mixed, the more gluten is created. Quick breads are similar to the texture of cakes and thus one should not over-mix to
ensure a delicate composition. Regardless of which chemical leaveners you use, the batter should go into the oven immediately once mixed together, as the gases start producing immediately when the liquid is added. If using eggs and air to leaven, bake immediately before it deflates, for optimal results. Once in the oven, heat will convert moisture in the batter to steam. The steam, air and gases from leavening will be trapped in the batter, thus giving the product height and a fluffy texture. Dear Chef Dez: I love pancakes, but whenever I make them they turn out tough. I know it’s not the recipe because it is the same one that my mom uses and hers always turn out fluffy and delicate. Can you help me? Sarah D. Burnaby Dear Sarah: Pancakes are much like

ith the weather rapidly turning colder and the economy continuing to challenge pocket books everywhere, the ChilliwackVineyard Church and Eden Mennonite Church are inviting everyone who’s feeling the pinch to partake in the upcoming Love Chilliwack Clothing Give-Away. This free event is planned for Tuesday, Nov. 9 from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Eden Mennonite Church on the corner of Broadway and Chilliwack Central roads. “We are relying on the generous support of our Love Chilliwack Churches—and anyone else who wants to donate—for very clean, gently used clothing in all sizes,” says event organizer Debbie Fortnum. “We are happy to be offering this quality event because we believe that it is our simple way of saying, ‘God loves

you and so do we.’” There is also a need for clothing racks and people who can sort, fold and organize on Nov. 8 at Eden Mennonite Church. One grocery bag of free clothing per family member present will be offered, as well as free haircuts for children. There will be no donation jars in the building. “It is our free gift to our community,” Fortnum said. The lower auditorium of Eden Mennonite Church will be used to host this event, and coffee and baked goods will be provided. Clothing donations will be taken at two times only: during the worship service at The Chilliwack Vineyard church (A.D. Rundle middle school) Sunday, Nov. 7 from 10 a.m. to noon and at the Eden Mennonite Church this Monday, Nov. 8 from noon to 7 p.m.

quick breads as they should have a cake-like texture, hence the name pan“cakes”. The biggest mistake made when preparing pancake batter is a tendency to over-mix. Over-mixing flour and liquid produces gluten, which will give it more structure. The more mixing one does, the more gluten is created, and the tougher the cooked pancakes will be. It is okay for your batter to be a bit lumpy. Also, make sure you are not using bread flour, as it contains more gluten than all-purpose or pastry flour. I hope this helps.

ome of the simplest baking products to make are quick breads. Quick breads, as the name implies, can be made in a shorter amount of time than traditional yeast breads. Examples would be banana bread, muffins, scones, etc., and although easier, there is still information worth knowing. The biggest, and most obvious, difference between yeast breads and quick breads is that quick breads are not leavened with yeast. The term “leavening” can be described as the creating and capturing of gases in a baked product to produce structure and height. As yeast ferments, with the help of sugar, it creates gas that causes the holes visible in bread. Quick breads rely on leaveners such as baking soda, baking powder, steam, eggs and air to give a similar effect. Baking soda and baking powder are considered

Hard 2 believe
. . . they’re just teens
Brittany Clough and Allan Meldrum are hitting all the right notes BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com
T
Paul J. Henderson/TIMES
Brittany Clough and Allan Meldrum on the stage during rehearsal for Hard 2 Hide, G.W. Graham’s first-ever completely student-created and directed performance. Behind the two show’s creators are performers Jacklyn Kirsch (left to right) Ella Stewart and Rocky Riobo.
he G.W. Graham theatre stage is set up like a classroom with 12 seats, a blackboard, and students sitting and slouching in their chairs. At the call of “action” from 15-year-old student Brittany Clough, the singing and dancing begins as, one after another, female actors decry “boys”—even dumping one off his chair—in a scene that culminates with a full singing and dancing number. That’s right: 15-years-old. She is in Grade 10. The scene is a rehearsal for Hard 2 Hide, a creation of Clough and 17-year-old musical director Allan Meldrum. The performance, set to hit the stage for opening night Nov. 12, is G.W. Graham’s firstever completely student-created and directed performance. And while Clough has performed herself as a singer and dancer for years, that’s nothing compared to the butterflies she feels as the one in charge of an entire show. “It’s really scary,” she told theTimes. “It’s just scary to think what people will think of it and how the turnout will be. How everyone will be talking about it.” The 17-member cast sings, dances, acts and is accompanied by a three-piece orchestra. The musical has been a lot of work for Clough and Meldrum, who worked during lunch hours, school hours, and after school to develop the pieces that would become Hard 2 Hide. “It was a lot of work,” Clough said. The musical began when Clough was in
Grade 9 as a school project for her Grade 9-10 International Baccalaureate. “It’s kind of hard to believe because I didn’t think this musical would get this far,” she said. “I thought I would maybe have a couple of friends do it.” Clough said she is having a lot of fun being behind the scenes rather than on-stage and that it’s a lot of fun to see her fellow students speak and sing her words. “It feels really good to see them practising on stage and knowing it’s my work,” she said. Hard 2 Hide may be an all-student production, but it isn’t all fun and games as it touches on some serious topics. The musical focuses on Ashley, an average student, both in grades and popularity. She has an alcoholic, abusive father and mourns the death of her mother. Her best friends include an overachieving, boy-crazy girl and a studious albeit insecure young woman. “It’s about quite a few deeper things: anorexia, death, alcoholism and drug abuse,” she said. “It inspired me because . . . I am in high school and you see a lot of these things happening around you, but not a lot of the people get help. “I’ve had a couple of friends that have starved themselves and others who have dropped out of school because of drugs. I wanted to help raise awareness.” While it may not sound like the cheeriest of subjects, Clough insists there is more than enough levity and it is entertaining. “It sounds really depressing and dark but it has some funny parts and we have other characters that brighten the mood.” ◗ Tickets for Hard 2 Hide are $10 and can be purchased at G.W. Graham school, London Drugs, Vedder Save-On Foods and at the door on performance nights. Don’t miss out on this world-premiere event, as happenings like this at a grade-school level are few and far between. Show dates are Nov. 12, 13, 18, 19, 20 at 7 p.m. and Nov. 13 and 20 at 2 p.m.

What’s on
Submitted
Gary Zerbe’s entry in the City of Chilliwack’s annual Christmas Card Contest received the most votes during the one week public voting period last month. Zerbe and his wife immigrated to Canada from Germany in 1951 and have called Chilliwack home since 2002. As a child, his father gave him a set of watercolours and a lifelong hobby was born. Having little formal training in the fine arts, most of his painting is self-taught. He retired from mechanical maintenance in 1990 and his spare time is taken up with golfing and creating watercolours.

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM
1864-16
Folk and blues and comedy
Hick Wisdom and the Brokeback Mountain Daredevils are a trio of singer/songwriters as unlikely as they are talented. Wes Borg, of the legendary comedy group Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie, brings old and new comedy songs about dysfunctional love, hatred of Toronto and computer operating systems. Tim Culbert combines humour with catchy hooks and pure wit with songs about driving a zamboni and spending 40 hours in a Calgary holding cell. And Trent Olver rounds out the trio with achingly honest and beautiful songs like “Heart” and “Undressed.” Together they bring you a show that runs the gamut from pure comedy to sincere heartbreak and everything in between on Nov. 6 at Bozzini’s. Doors at 8 p.m. show at 9:30 p.m. Tickets are $12 and can be reserved at Bozzini’s or call 604-7920744.

eaturing the directing talents of Chilliwack resident Eldon Letkeman, and the set-design talents of Chillwack’s Gordon Hamilton, a former UFV Theatre student, Gallery 7 Theatre presents the innovative production of J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan, adapted by Canadian playwright, Jeff Pitcher. Opening Nov. 12, this magical tale of childhood adventure will open the Abbotsford theatre’s 20th anniversary season. “All the stops are being pulled to make this an incredible and fun production,” says the theatre’s artistic director, Ken Hildebrandt. “With this show, both the young and the young at heart will have the opportunity to let their imaginations take charge and experience an adventure that will leave them delighted, uplifted and inspired.” Peter Pan and his fairy counterpart, Tinkerbell, flutter in to the Darling nursery and whisk Wendy, John and Michael on an unforgettable journey to Neverland, a world inhabited by lost boys, pirates and fantastical creatures. Sword fights and narrow escapes ensue as the children band together to thwart the evil plans of Captain Hook. This is an exciting tale sure to capture the hearts and imaginations of all ages. “I believe that this play has the ability to show us how to be greater than we are,” says Letkeman. “I believe that Peter Pan allows us to relive our child-

Obituaries
RUTLEY, Donald James
August 13, 1929 ~ November 2, 2010 It is with great sadness that the Rutley family announces the passing of Donald James Rutley. He was born on Aug 13th, 1929 and left us on Nov.2nd, 2010. Don and his family left a homestead in Northern Saskatchewan and came to Rosedale in 1947 when he was 18. He met the love of his life, Nell Easson, at a United Church Social and they married in 1951. They built their [rst house on the Rutley property in Popkum and lived there until they moved to the Easson farm on Gibson Rd. in 1959. In 1977 they built their second house back on the original property and have lived there ever since. He started as a logger during his early married years and then got on with the Department of Highways where he worked until his retirement in 1987, after 35 years of service. Don was a tireless worker and he loved life and helping people. Family came [rst and foremost, especially his grandchildren, and Don could often be found in the bleachers cheering them on in whatever sport they participated in, and there were many. He made friends wherever he went and was an active, lifelong member of Rosedale United Church, Camp River Hall Society, and the Canadian Guernsey Breeders Assn., as well as being a 4H leader for 10 years. He was also a board member for Cultus Lake United Church Camp for many years and spent countless hours up at the camp helping out. He believed in reduce, reuse and recycle and gleaning before it became popular, and almost anything you needed could be found in his shop or the back of his truck. He loved working outdoors and could always be found [xing something, or scrounging logs to cut up for lumber or [rewood. He loved picking blackberries, blueberries, apples or walnuts which he would give away to others as there was always more than he could use. He also loved to visit family and friends, and hardly a day went by where there wasn t someone dropping in for mid-morning coffee. His favorite holiday was to drive back to the prairies to visit friends and relatives, but he always had to get back home because there was something to be done at the church or for his family. His spirit will dwell here forever. Don will be greatly missed by his wife of 59 years, Nell, his sisters Margretrose (Doug) Brunner and Lorna (Gil) Pettigrew, his children, Douglas (Michele), Bruce (Lois), Robert (Mary), Scott (Sharon), Triena, and daughter in law Karen, 14 grandchildren, Morgan (Tyler), Brock, Pearce, Brendan, Ryan, Trevor, Adel (Dale), Sabrina (John), Grant (Crystal), Robin, Christina, Aidan, Alexis, Shane, and Raylene, great grandchildren Levi and Sa[ra, and many nieces and nephews. The family would like to pass on thanks to the staff on NU3 at CGH and Cascade Hospice for their wonderful care of Don and family during his [nal days. A celebration of his life is planned for Monday, Nov. 8th at 2:00 PM at Chilliwack United Church, 45835 Spadina Ave. Chilliwack with a tea to follow at Camp River Hall. Memorial donations can be made to the Cultus Lake United Church Camp, a place very dear to his heart. Online condolences can be left at www.hendersonsfunerals.com

NOV 19TH, 2010,
Cancer June 21-July 22: Romance, games, sports, creativity, speculation, charming kids, beauty and pleasure fill your days. You ride a winning streak! But a change takes place here, especially if you’re single. A person who seemed like a lightweight is ready to move into deeper territory with you, while somebody you thought was more solid, alluring (and possibly “fertile” as in home, babies, etc.) grows more evasive, even retreats. My advice: wait for the evasive one. He/ she is merely taking a wise “think session” for a few weeks. Work matters heat up all month: do it; 2011 will bring huge career luck. Leo July 23-Aug. 22: The emphasis lies on your domestic scene: home, kids, parents, the essentials of survival. In business, shore up your foundations. Love grows intimate, supportive — or you look elsewhere. (All November, your romantic instincts perk up. This week onward, you’ll start to grow hopeful about someone chirpy, cheerful, perhaps met in a group.) A message from the past flows toward you – or you travel to a former haunt. Sunday/ Monday are romantic, but not hugely. Tackle chores midweek. Thursday eve through Saturday promotes relationships: be diplomatic – a good friendship awaits you! Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Overall, this is an easy week, Virgo. Communications, errands, paperwork, details, casual conversations and acquaintances fill November. But Sunday/Monday draw you away from social areas: you need to shore up your foundations in some arena – get more sleep, repair the basement walls, fix a phone system, etc. Romance, beauty, an appetite for risk buoy you Tuesday to Thursday – enjoy! Tackle chores Thursday eve to Saturday, especially those communication tasks. Your domestic situation heats up – you might make a significant move (careful!) or realty purchase (OK) before 2010 ends.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: The accent lies on secrets, research, other people’s money, investments, debts, power plays, playing your hunches, lifestyle changes, deep health issues/diagnosis, commitment and consequence. In many ways, the “information stage” of this influence is over. Now it’s pure action, negotiation, taking the plunge. All month (and into early December) beware of legal hassles. Don’t state your opinion too forcefully. The same period favours international travel, education, symposiums, etc. Someone who was ready to make an agreement might withdraw: this process actually began in October. Taurus April 20-May 20: The emphasis remains on relationships – and these are growing increasingly “consequential,” as they start creating sexual, investment or other life-affecting choices between you and another (or others, as in an investment group). You’ll discuss these at length, with “love.” Yet your “partner” in all these has been growing more and more indecisive or evasive. Now, he/she/ they will actually pull back or right out for the rest of November, despite a willingness to talk. Be patient: by December, they’ll be “on board” again, and you’ll glide (or bounce!) toward success! Be ambitious Friday. Gemini May 21-June 20: Quietly, steadily plow through chores. Work, machinery, health, dependents form your main focus. All’s well – though boring. Relationships intensify all November – this could be love or hate, or both. There will certainly be words, you’ll be surprised at someone’s talkativeness (writativeness?). Love is more likely than hate, as an unexpected romantic mood steals over you, likely toward a past amour. Relationships demand diplomacy, but offer (quite limited) opportunity Sunday/Monday. Sex, lust, finances lure, unluckily Tuesday, luckily Wednesday (after dawn). Gentle love Friday/Saturday.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Chase money, buy/sell, find new clients, seek a pay raise. A certain allure settles over you now to late month; it mildly attracts others, makes it easy for you to charm, persuade. Your communications intensify; you’ll be writing, talking, meeting and travelling. These activities link to partnership – e.g., you meet a viable mate while travelling, or you talk more with your spouse, etc. A very important trip might occur, bringing you wisdom, legal, educational or publishing success, taking you to a future mate, etc. But note: BIG relationship opportunities, meetings await you in 2011. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Your energy, charisma and effectiveness remain at a yearly peak, so push ahead with valued projects, and/or start new ones. Two secondary changes happen now: 1) your monetary, spending picture, which went from first to second gear last week, now goes to third. For four weeks, your spending (and earning) can be heavily tied to investment or the net worth of your partner. Usually I’d recommend purchasing an investment now, but conditions are unpredictable, so be careful, alert. And 2) love, partnership quietly sink into a private, intimate, indecisive mode. Be patient! Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Rest, lie low, remain in the background. The less you are noticed, the better. Usually Nature ensures this, reducing your charisma for a while. But this November a “false energy” inspires and drives you, even sparks flirtations. It could get you in trouble, so think twice before you plunge into action, argument or a big gamble! (Positively, you might rescue someone.) A love affair might start – but it has a volatile, probably unhappy future. If you’re unattached, wait for the first half of 2011, when romance potentials will soar! Shop Wednesday. Sweet acquaintance Saturday.
Nov. 7 - Nov. 13 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Your social buoyancy continues, but for the rest of November it will serve your ambitions more successfully than your heart. VIPs, bosses, even parents favour you now to Nov. 28, while the same period only aids 1) love that is already established (making couples more private, intimate) and 2) clandestine or verboten affairs. Retreat for a rest Sunday/Monday. Contemplate, plan. Your energy surges Tuesday to Thursday afternoon – charge ahead, make your mark, start important projects. Chase money late Thursday to Saturday – there’s more of it! Possible sensual joy late Saturday. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Chase your ambitions, fulfil duties, be an exemplary citizen. Your reputation is being tested, observed, made. You’ll feel more hopeful than usual now to November’s end. Your popularity and social entanglements will rise. You might meet an attractive, intellectually lively, charming talker at a social function. But it’s not his/her brain you’re interested in. You might make two, even more, new friends, good ones – Sunday/Monday, or the rest of this month. But retreat Tuesday to Thursday afternoon – rest, plan. Your energy, charisma surge thence to Saturday. Love’s possible this night! Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Life has grown mellow, thoughtful lately (well, pretty mellow, as adventure or tension has generally filled this year – and to some degree, the last seven years). Your ambition zone heats up for the remainder of November – quick action, prompt responses are expected of you, bosses and VIPs are impatient. This trend is heavily laden with the possible fruits of success. Those impatient bosses are also generous; you can translate effort into money! An almost casual discussion could lead to a bigger “account” for you, or to “recapturing” an investment. Your lust rises. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
